What was Joe Pilates biggest pet peeve?
Sep 22, 2025Hint: it’s on the Short Box
Making noise with the foot strap when doing the Short Box series would drive Joe mad. (He also hated chatting in the studio and labored breathing but that’s another post.)
If difficulty in dorsiflexion causes you to release the strap (and make noise), don’t automatically blame tight calf muscles.
Yes, these could be the culprit but limited dorsiflexion could also be the fault of bones. Specifically, the ankle bones.
